Research of Railway Crashed Stone Use of 40 –70 mm Fraction

ENG: The results of the conducted researches on operating, physical and mechanical properties of crushed stone of 40-70 mm fraction are presented in the article as well as the results of the comparison of the given fraction with the fraction of 25-60 mm and determination of the former fraction usage for the ballast with the purpose of more rational fund use during railway repair works. The conducted researches of 40-70 mm fraction of crushed stone allowed receiving: – actual values of technical indices of the product and adopted technical decisions; – conformity of the product with the operating conditions as well as physical and mechanical properties during track maintenance; – ability to perform tests; – comparison of physical, mechanical and operational properties of crushed stone of 40-70 mm fraction with the crushed stone of 25-60 mm fraction.
